Plastic valves are integral components in fluid handling systems where corrosion resistance, lightweight construction, and cost efficiency are priorities. Comprehensive testing of these valves ensures they perform reliably under pressure, temperature, and chemical exposure.
Key Testing Procedures
Hydrostatic Pressure and Burst Tests: Identify maximum service pressures and failure modes.
Seat Leakage Tests: Evaluate the valve’s ability to maintain seal integrity under both static and dynamic conditions.
Operational Torque Analysis: Measure actuation forces required for manual and motorized operations, ensuring compatibility with automation systems.
Thermal Endurance Cycling: Alternate between cold and hot water exposures to simulate field conditions and assess material fatigue.
Technical Capabilities
Pressure Range: Up to 10 MPa for standard valves; extended ranges available.
Temperature Control: Ambient to 95 °C with rapid change capability for cycling tests.
Flow and Leak Detection: Digital flow meters paired with high-precision pressure sensors to quantify leakage rates down to 0.01 mL/min.
Automation: Programmable sequences for unattended multi-valve testing, alarm notifications, and remote monitoring.
Sector Applications
Water Treatment: Validating valves used in filtration, chlorination, and distribution systems.
Chemical Processing: Ensuring valve bodies and seals resist aggressive media under pressure.
Irrigation: Testing solenoid and manual valves in agricultural settings for clog resistance and sealing performance.
HVAC Systems: Verifying balancing valves and zone controls under thermal stress.
